Our vision is to have one of the best electric vehicle infrastructure networks in the world. This means current and prospective electric vehicle drivers are able to easily locate and access charging infrastructure that is affordable, reliable and secure. A better consumer experience of using public chargepoints is central to this vision. The Alternative Fuel Infrastructure Regulations requires that all public chargepoints provide ad-hoc access which means EV drivers can charge at any chargepoint without having to enter into a contract with an infrastructure operator nor be in the possession of multiple RFID cards. The Automated and Electric Vehicles Act goes further by providing the government with a range of powers to improve the charging experience for current and future including the powers to specify a uniform method of payment. The Government continues to monitor market developments closely. If the market fails to continue to deliver further improvements across the entire network or takes too long, the Government is prepared to intervene using the powers in the Automated and Electric Vehicles Act to ensure a good deal for consumers.<\/p>

<\/strong><\/p>In the Autumn Budget the Government announced an additional £60 million for tree planting initiatives, comprising £10 million to fund urban tree planting and £50 million for a Woodland Carbon Guarantee scheme.

The Department for Work and Pensions\u2019 Credit Union Expansion Project delivered an Automated Loans and Decision tool (ALD) which has been used by over 70 credit unions. The ALD has allowed credit unions to achieve up to 40% administrative savings on delivering loans and reduce provision for unpaid debt by over £1 million. There are also third party suppliers who offer these services on a commercial basis.<\/p>
<\/p>
The government remains committed to supporting credit unions, which provide vital services to financially under-served communities and contribute to the diversity of the UK\u2019s financial services sector.<\/p>
<\/p>
At Autumn Budget 2018 the Chancellor announced a new £2 million challenge fund to promote innovative technological solutions from the UK\u2019s Fintech sector to address challenges faced by social and community lenders, including credit unions. This will help support the continued development and modernisation of the credit union sector.<\/p>"}

<\/p>
Skin Cancer awareness month is an annual awareness campaign that takes place every May. The campaign aims to raise awareness of the dangers of unprotected sun exposure and educate the public about the ways to help prevent skin cancer.<\/p>
The Sunbeds (Regulation) Act 2010 came into force in April 2011 in England and Wales to prohibit under-18s from using sunbeds.<\/p>

Public Health England (PHE) contributed to the revision of the World Health Organization publication \u201cArtificial tanning devices - Public health interventions to manage sunbeds\u201d, which was published in 2017.
